URGENT: 12V Generator, Petrol Powered Needed

[MrOizo]

Hey people,

Some one here must work at or know of a Generator place.

We are sending gear to the islands TOMORROW and as a contingency, we need a 12v generator to put in the container.

It is to power and charge a 12v system.

Normally we have it connected to out vehicles which have a dedicated alternator but we are not taking the vehicle with us.

Needs to be new, good reliable brand.

Any help appreciated!

[Grrrrrrr!]

sounds like you need a generator and a charger, a 12v generator will put out 12v, which wont charge batteries. how much current does the load draw?

[sergei]

What sort of current you are talking about?

You could get a cheap 240V generator and a cheap 1000W computer PSU....

Thnks for the replies guys. At this stage we're holding off with the generator.

Our last generator was a 11hp Honda motor and had a belt to a Bosch 12v alternator.

This was good till the tank started to rust and fuel leaking from who knows where.

I will keep an eye out and we may look at sending one if there are issues with the current setup.

Cheers.
